Make Donation and help fund Celiac Disease Research

Your support will allow us to accelerate our goal of finding an alternative treatment/cure for CD, expand our reputation as the premier Center in the world, and continue to improve the quality of life for all patients with CD.

Remember, we are not asking you to just make a contribution, but to make an investment in the well being of every patient – now and in the future. For now, we cannot rely on any outside financial assistance. So, please help us help you.

Our Annual Fund Campaign continues to be an important piece of the CFCR, as it provides unrestricted support for the operation of the CFCR and is crucial to our competitive edge.

We value your generosity, commitment, and friendship. Without your generous support, our research would not be possible.

Ways of Giving

Support the Center for Celiac Research through your online shopping! We have launched a fundraising program called the Everyday Buying Program – that gives you the ability to transform your everyday, online purchasing into money for the CFCR. It’s really very simple: we earn a percentage of the purchase price of items you buy through the merchant links on our Everyday Buying Page.

From office supplies to home appliances or school books, from computer equipment to music downloads or new fall clothing, every purchase helps! Please give it a try today, and remember:

• No extra cost to you – even sale items or special deals generate $$$
• No extra time – it’s only 1 click
• No registration required

Be sure to add our page to your browser’s BOOKMARKS or FAVORITES, and start here every time you shop online. To help us even more, don’t forget to share with your friends through email, Facebook or Twitter! Want more info? www.ourewards.com/FAQs.htm.

Donate to the CFCR through market research: Op4G (Opinions 4 Good) maintains a database and sells access to it for consumer and market research. Advertising agencies and consumer-oriented companies do such work on a daily basis. But Op4G is different from other research companies because its database is comprised of people just like you – supporters of Non-Profit enterprises like the CFCR. Op4G makes it possible for people like you to earn money and donate it to the CFCR by participating in internet-based market research anonymously at a safe and secure website. Your identity is never known, can never be sold, and you’re never inundated with SPAM as a result of Op4G Membership. Plus, all market research activities are determined by you at the myOp4G website, which is filled with a variety of information and activities. Op4G’s program allows you to help us while also sharing your feelings and experiences with organizations eager to pay for that insight. You’ll be paid for it and can donate as much as you want to the CFCR!

To sign up, go to www.op4g.com and enter the code CELIAC1234. That identifies the CFCR as the Non-Profit you are there to support.
